[b][WORCESTERSHIRE, 1/24/2018][/b] - Karma Mobility are happy to talk about any of their range, but they are particularly enthusiastic about powerchairs right now. That’s because powerchairs are the perfect mobility aid for the winter months.

Just the thought of poor conditions and slippery surfaces can put some people off leaving their home. This can be isolating, and even dangerous if they are not able to access the supplies and sustenance that they need. There are plenty of strategies than can help to avoid this and some of them include powerchairs.

[b]Karma Mobility – Protection[/b]

Powerchairs from Karma Mobility are sturdy and weatherproof to a certain extent, depending on the model. People can add to this with personal weather gear or perhaps a rainproof cover that incorporates powerchairs.

If powerchairs are stored outside, they may need a rain cover at this time of year to help keep them in good condition so that they are ready to go whenever they are needed.

[b]Karma mobility – Tyres[/b]

Powerchairs often have strong tyres with a deep tread as standard. If someone has particularly challenging terrain to tackle, they might consider upgrading their types to even better ones in the winter months. Karma Mobility carries a range of spares and accessories.

Otherwise, it’s worth checking that any standard issue tyres are in mint condition with a heavy tread and plenty of air inside. A local stockist of Karma Mobility products may be able to do this or point someone in the direction of a service provider who checks powerchairs for winter readiness.

In extreme conditions, someone might consider studs or chains for their powerchair tyres, but this is rare.

Powerchairs can be rear, front or mid-wheel drive. Each of these types has different advantages in terms of manoeuvrability and grip. If you have any questions about the pros and cons of each, a local stockist of Karma Mobility products will be able to help you. Otherwise, they are always happy to answer questions via the various methods of contact on their website. Visit them at [b]http://www.karmamobility.co.uk[/b].
